UBE MACAPUNO CHEESECAKE WITH SLICED MANGO TOPPING

We’re having a party today so I’ll just share the recipe for the ube cheesecake with slices of mangoes. I was hoping to get a shot of the slice of the cheesecake but I was too late….my guests had dessert before dinner!!!! Enjoy!

Look! Somebody saved a slice for me…Yehey!!

Ingredients:

1 1/2 cup graham cracker crumbs

3 tbs unsalted butter, melted

3 boxes cream cheese

3 eggs, room temperature

1 jar ube jam (12 oz)

1 jar (12 oz) macapuno preserve (reserve 2 tbs for garnish)

2 tsp vanilla extract

1 ripe mango, peeled and sliced

1 strawberry for garnish

Directions:

In a bowl, mix graham crackers and butter. Transfer to 9-inch cheesecake pan and press crumbs to bottom. Bake at 350F for 12 minutes. Let cool in a rack.

You hit a sweet spot with me. I LOVE LOVE LOVE ube!! I can eat bowl fulls of it and i’d be satisfied. That’s the only topping I’d prefer in halo halo. This a must keep. I can hear the printer going right now.
